[SUITE SPOTS] Virgin Atlantic Business Class to London

@themilescouple Points and Miles Academy You can fly Vietnam Airlines to Ho Chi Minh City for as low as 136K points round-trip! Since the only route with availability is from San Francisco, a positioning flight may be worth it if Vietnam or Southeast Asia are next on your list!

@themilescouple Award Booking Service Fly lie-flat to Istanbul on several nonstop routes! Fly out of New York, Chicago, DC, Los Angeles, or San Francisco. Pricing for the dates shown below is at 65,000 points + $217 each way when booking directly through Turkish Airlines!

@themilescouple Award Booking Service Is Seoul on your bucket list? You can fly from Honolulu or Dallas nonstop to Seoul in American Airlines business class! This deal isn’t talked about often enough, but it’s a solid use of AA miles if you’re not able to find any JAL availability to Asia instead. Unfortunately, no major banks currently partner with AA (Though did you hear the news? Citi is set to add it in the future!) This means this deal is best for people with lots of AA miles sitting in…

@themilescouple Points and Miles Academy Yesterday, Virgin changed it award chart to dynamic pricing… and “Saver” fares to the UK are now as low as 29,000 points! If you have any Chase points, thanks to the 40% transfer bonus you only need 21,000 Ultimate Rewards. Citi also has a 30% transfer bonus, so you’d need 23,000 ThankYou points. If your points are with another bank – this is still a stellar deal, and arguably one of the cheapest ways you can reach Europe on points. Considering that…

@themilescouple Award Booking Service There’s more award space from LA to Nadi (Fiji), which is a super niche destination to get to on points!! The best way to book is through Alaska for 75K miles (transfer Amex -> Hawaiian -> Alaska, or Bilt), while the second best way is to leverage Capital One’s 20% transfer bonus to British Airways for 78K miles.

@themilescouple Award Booking Service Fancy visiting Bora Bora? Here’s the deal: there are no international flights that go to Bora Bora directly. Papeete Airport (PPT) is the only one that services flights to Tahiti internationally. Once there, you have to take an Air Tahiti flight from Papeete to Bora Bora (unfortunately, these aren’t bookable with points and tend to be a little expensive). But if you want to fly lie-flat on your long-haul, whether Bora Bora is your final destination or…
